get-screen-pixmap

Arguments: &key box prompt title no-dialog no-draw

This function simply calls get-pixmap to create a pixmap from
the image in an area of the screen, first calling get-screen-box if
box is unsupplied. The
box argument is passed to get-pixmap, while the
other arguments are passed to get-screen-box.

If no-draw is nil
(the default), then a rubber-banding box is drawn during the time
between the two presses of the control key to indicate the region that
is being selected. If no-draw is true, then this
box is not drawn. Drawing the box could leave screen droppings if the
area being copied is being updated as the user is specifying the box.

The return value is a pixmap unless box is
nil and the user presses the Escape key to
cancel the interactive specification of the box, in which case nil is returned.
